Healthy Lemon Blueberry Muffins {5-Ingredients + Protein-Packed}

Fresh lemon and juicy blueberries make these healthy, lemon blueberry muffins a sweet, yet wholesome, 5-ingredient treat. Top them with creamy Greek yogurt for the perfect protein-packed pre-or-post workout snack!

If you’ve been reading the blog for a while, you may have noticed that I haven’t shared a new recipe post in a while {outside of some great recipe round-ups}! That’s because shooting recipes stresses me out.

The recipes I actually make on a weekly basis are so simple that I don’t even really think of them as ‘recipes’! And food photography is not my strong-suit. Workouts are my thing.

But you’ve been asking for more of my ‘simple day-to-day recipes’ so I’m sharing these Healthy Lemon Blueberry Muffins. They’re only 5-ingredients, most of which you probably have on-hand right now, and protein-packed so they make the perfect pre-or-post workout snack.

Bonus, Brody eats them too, especially when they’re slathered in yogurt.

If you took a look inside my lunch bag you’d see some type of egg-muffin on repeat weekly — blueberry egg muffins, veggie packed egg muffins, banana chia egg muffins, and now these lemon blueberry muffins. 

The recipes above were some of the first recipes I ever shared on the blog, hence the pictures, but they are still staples in my meal plan today.

I’m all about simple, 5-ingredient recipes, and that’s exactly what this recipe is — lemon, blueberries, eggs, oats, and yogurt. That’s it! No unneccessary sugars added because the sweetness comes from the lemon and blueberries. 

I bet you have these 5-ingredients on-hand right now, so whip them together.

Then top them with a generous spoonful of yogurt; lately Brody and I are super into Siggis Vanilla Yogurt. Add some extra blueberries and lemon zest if you’re feeling fancy too! 

Also, these healthy, lemon blueberry muffins are made in a blender. So not only are they ready to bake in under 5-minutes, but you’ll only dirty two dishes in the process of making them — your blender and muffin pan.

I highly suggest using a silicon muffin pan! I switched over to using this silicon muffin pan last year and it’s been a game-changer {you can get it at Target for $13.99}.

The muffins pop right out without using any cooking spraying, and they don’t leave behind any residue. Making clean up a breeze.
